erik writes "I was recently asked by a casual darter as I picked up several sets of my darts from the post office "what does it take to get good enough to hit what you want?"

My answer was "time".

Her reply was "time? as in take your time when you throw?"

I answered: No, but rather time on the board.

You see, while everyone is different I think time is the real difference in making an accurate dart player. It takes a lot of time just hitting the board over and over again to develop your throw. So take the time, hit the board often, then hit it more and more and more. Wear the board out, get a new board and do it again and again.

In time, you will develop your throw and accuracy but don't get discourage too early. Some, like me, have spent more time throwing darts than others have spent working!

Erik writes "Gerwyn
Price’s decision to give up rugby to become a professional darts player
is paying dividends as the 30-year-old clinched the Worthington’s 2015
Darts Champion of Champions title and a check for £5,000 at the
weekend.

Price,
who played for Cross Keys, Neath and Glasgow during his rugby career,
won eight matches to emerge from the pack of 256 pub and club champions
from across the UK in front of a partisan audience at grand final held
at St David’s Hall, Cardiff. Ranked 30 in the Professional Darts Corporation (PDC), his aim is to get promoted into the world’s top 16 players next year."

erik writes "Have you ever really thought about practice and how it impacts your darts? Have you thought about practicing but really didn't want to record what you were doing? Decided you didn't like a certain game? Chose to change the rules to make it more 'fun'?

I've been thinking about the psychology of practice for some time and one thing that keeps coming back to me is that it's very easy to succumb to the 'easy' or the negatives and very difficult at times to break through them."

erik writes "I've been thinking lately that the key to playing darts well are the habits we establish. One, of course, can also say the key to NOT playing well is also the habits we form.

For example the player who routinely kicks has a habit of kicking and thus is unstable at the line. Just like the player who tosses his throwing arm to the left after each throw has a habit of doing so and likely misses to the left more than he/she should. However, how often do we consider the good habits of playing darts?

For example the player who routinely stays motionless at the oche except his/her throwing arm is likely to be very stable. The player who has a habit of always releasing the same way every throw with the same follow through will likely have a very good average.

I think the point here is to remember that there are good and bad habits and habits take both time to create and time to break. So, if you are trying to improve your game take a look at your habits and ask yourself: is this a good or bad habit?

The good ones keep, the bad ones get rid of!

Now, it is said that it takes 7 days to make a habit and 28 days to get rid of it...bear that in mind as you work to develop good habits and get rid of bad ones."

For the seeded players their
first day at the Winmau World Masters didn't start well. The first three, James
Wilson, Darryl Fitton and Wesley Harms, were immediately eliminated, because
the qualifiers Mark McGeeney, Seigo Asada and Rhys Hayden played much better.
Wilson was steamrolled by McGeeney's 106.14 average, Fitton and Asada raced
head to head, in the deciding Leg the Japanese crossed the finishing line
first. It was not as obvious why Wesley Harms lost - the Dutchman both had the
better doubles hitting rate and the better average and threw the only two 180's
of the match.
With Martin Phillips the tide turned - the Welshman proved he's not on the
shelf yet. An impressive average of almost 100 and a double hitting rate of 50
percent were not to beat. Glen Durrant managed to stay in the tournament as
well though he played far less well and the match only started to get gripping
near the end."

It's been a long hard road to make this a reality, but it's finally done. So, spread the word. And coming soon...new flight and shaft systems being put on the electronic and moveable point widows and new dart designs for both Horizon and Laserdarts!!!"

Might be the one or other wondered that I don't seem to be in
Dublin for the World Grand Prix this year. But the World Grand Prix is not the
only major tournament which is played at the moment! And to be sure I am in the
field though not in Dublin - but for the first time in Hull, where the Winmau
World Masters started yesterday.
The tournament - better the tournaments - already started on Tuesday with the
first phase of the new BDO Youth World Championship. A lot of the best youth
players from around the world were here anyway to take part in the World
Masters. In the final of the World Championship Harry Ward from England will
play against Dutch Colin Roelofs. On Wednesday the play-offs for the BDO World
Championship took place and from the field of participants Canadian Maria
Mason, Sarah Brent from England, Daniel Larsson from Sweden, Englishman Rhys
Hayden, Canadian Jeff Smith and Belgian Cedric Waegemans qualified - all for
the first time in Lakside.
